Farmer, with the help of her friend, Cindy Bellis, have been donating sheets, pillows, towels and blankets for around the last five years to various animal shelters and clinics in the area.

"Any of the sheets we get with stains on them, we have a process of cleaning them," Farmer said. "If they can't be cleaned, then we don't have any other option except to donate them.

"I call the different organizations and see if they need them," Bellis said. "The reason we donate to the Humane Society is because they get no city or county funding like the animal shelter, so we do what we can because they really need it."

When Farmer decided to start donating, she reached out to the corporate office of the Fairfield Inn, and got full support for the idea.

But the donations don't always go to animals, Farmer also donates what she can to the local rescue mission and women's shelter. However, due to the rules of what they can take, certain materials can only go to help the animals.

Farmer donates around 5 bags full of sheets, towels and pillows every month, and hopes to keep helping as much as she can.

Materials that aren't fully used by guests go to Clean The World, which takes all leftovers and recycles them to send all around the world to those in need.
